Unknown Leak (P2)
When I try to run my map in Hammer it comes up with this message:
Area portal leak! File: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\sdk_content\maps\preview.lin
I don't see how this is a leak though, because I bordered the entire map in a giant nodraw box, so can someone tell me how to fix this problem?

Is the area that the area portal in sealed off? Here is a page from the VDC that talks about it: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Area_portal#Compilation

With the latest SDK update, I too have problems now with the areaportal brush function in a map I was developing.

So I tried a new simple test map, a six sided cube brush box with an areaportal brush dividing the interior into two parts.

Upon compiling, Hammer says that the areaportal brush leaks, without providing a .lin point file. The area is completely sealed. I have never had this happen before.

Just to be clear, the actual message is "areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas". The SDK content was refreshed. The local tool cache was verified.
